This five-set of DMM Peenuts should be on your rack every time you cast off on an ultra-thin aid or sketchy trad pitch. Their color-coded anodized heads make it easy to select the right size, and slightly tapered heads increase security in flaring cracks. These little guys fit perfectly in pin scars, tiny seams, and that little pocket on your project that doesn't quite fit your fingers.

These small offset nuts are stellar on granite. They fit awesome in small cracks and flares and pin scars. Grab a set to up the confidence level on those thin pitches.

I love these. They place extremely well in flaring cracks. I have been placing them so often, that I wonder how I was able to get by before, and what took me so long to buy them !

I could not say enough good things about the DMM Peenuts. These have become some of my favorite pieces of gear. They have a beautiful offset shape that allows them to fit better in many tiny cracks and pin scars better than the small wall nuts or other stoppers. I always find myself reaching for these on small placements and I couldn't imagine climbing without them as I use them so frequently.

These little guys fit great in pin scars and weird flares in quartz monozite or granite equivalents. The taper is fantastic for scary flares too.

These are great small nuts. They have an offset wedge shape that can fit in some spots that the standard small nuts cannot. The kN strength is good, especially for the 4 and 5; the other three smaller sizes are great for building equalized rats nests, etc. The black wrap on the bond of the nuts is excellent, and double wrapped so it is really nice for fiddling my placements in, as the entire nut stays a bit more stiff until I set it in its place. I am extremely satisfied with these lightweight nuts, and am happy to have more options on my rack to solve problems.

If you climb granite, get them. They are awesome for any flaring cracks or weird constrictions. I was not huge on passive in little cottonwood until I got these. Pair them with the alloy offsets to feel good on granite

Between my partner and I we have fallen on the purple, green, and yesterday I fell on the black peenut. 11 foot fall on a 5kn piece. It held no problem.

I've been super stoked on these and I think that anyone climbing in the Wasatch should add these to their rack. It's true what is said "These little guys fit perfectly in pin scars, tiny seams, and that little pocket on your project that doesn't quite fit your fingers." They really do fit into tiny seams and little scars and work perfectly every time.

These nuts are amazing! I've used them in a variety of places across the PNW, and they work in a variety of different rock types; and situations. I love them, and they are always on my harness regardless of what I'm leading.

These stoppers are key for climbing in places like Yosemite or Zion. They love to fill up pin scars and flared cracks. They are a must have for anyone who deals with flared stuff on a regular basis.

These have some nice bite to them (brass is a bit better), and they fit in super weird and thin placements. As a previous review stated, these are awesome in granite and place well in flared cracks. The construction of these is super solid, and I can tell that they're going to last.

These are a must for the granite climber! They clean up in pin scars and small flared cracks. They fit where other gear cannot giving you the peace of mind needed to fire through a thin crux. I find that in some cases these guys have taken the R out of the routes rating! Get a set of these.

These little guys are the perfect compliment to any set of stoppers. They lock perfectly into pin scars where other standard stoppers might otherwise shift or not feel secure. I highly recommend these stoppers to any climber looking for an advantage when it comes to protecting thin cracks.

Awesome little nuts! I've been using them lately in Yosemite and they fit in perfectly every time!

Totally rad little nuts. I bootied one on a climbing trip and used it on every climb thereafter. Getting the whole set ASAP.
